Periodontal Treatment
Our periodontal treatment addresses gum disease through comprehensive stages including diagnosis, deep cleaning, surgical intervention, and maintenance programs. This multi-phase approach helps prevent tooth loss while addressing systemic health risks associated with periodontal disease. Patients receive personalized home care instruction and ongoing professional support to maintain treatment results.
Dental Implants
Dental implant services provide permanent tooth replacement solutions using titanium posts integrated with jawbone tissue. This treatment option prevents bone loss, restores natural function, and offers aesthetic benefits compared to traditional dentures. We offer full arch replacements and single tooth solutions with customized restoration options.
Gum Recession Treatment
Gum recession treatment utilizes gingival graft techniques to restore receded gum tissue and protect exposed tooth roots. This procedure addresses sensitivity, improves aesthetics, and prevents further tissue loss through autogenous or donor tissue transplantation. Treatment options are tailored to the severity of recession and patient health factors.
Sleep Apnea Appliances
Custom sleep apnea appliances offer non-invasive treatment for obstructive sleep apnea by maintaining airway patency during sleep. These oral devices provide a comfortable alternative to CPAP machines while effectively reducing apnea events and improving sleep quality for patients with mild to moderate conditions.
Bone Grafting
Bone grafting procedures restore jawbone volume to support dental implants or address periodontal disease effects. Using various grafting materials and techniques, we rebuild deficient bone structures to ensure successful implant placement and long-term stability through guided tissue regeneration processes.

Questions
What is periodontal disease?
Periodontal disease is a bacterial infection affecting gum tissues and supporting tooth structures. Left untreated, it can lead to tooth loss and has been linked to systemic health issues like heart disease and diabetes.
How do dental implants work?
Dental implants use titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone to support replacement teeth. Through osseointegration, the implant fuses with bone tissue to create a stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
Does insurance cover periodontal treatment?
Many dental insurance plans provide coverage for periodontal procedures. Our office staff can help verify your specific benefits and discuss payment options for any out-of-pocket expenses.
How do I schedule an appointment?
You can schedule a consultation by calling (978) 649-3058 or using our online appointment request form. We offer flexible scheduling during regular business hours for your convenience.
What sleep apnea treatment options exist?
We provide custom oral appliances as an alternative to CPAP machines. These devices reposition the jaw to maintain airway patency during sleep, effectively reducing apnea events and improving sleep quality.

Report
It is with great pleasure that I submit this review for Dr. Mandell and his caring professional staff. I had periodontal surgery for gum recession, earlier this summer. I was referred to Dr. Mandell by my Dentist. I of course was anxious about having this type of surgery to begin with, and hoped for the best when I went to this practice. From the moment I stepped into this office for a consult I was greeted by the most friendly and caring staff, they immediately dispelled any fears I may have had. Dr. Mandell explained the procedure to me calmly and put me at ease.
The surgery itself was a breeze! Dr. Mandell was so very kind and gentle, I experienced no pain at all. The ladies in his office are warm hearted and professional. I am very grateful to have met them. It is comforting to know as a Patient that you will receive excellent care and will be treated with respect. I highly recommend this practice.
